Estos nodos y lazos construyen redes dentro de los equipos de trabajo, lo que podría ser útil para que los directivos de salud los optimizaran. Por esta razón se aplicó el ARS al contexto de hospitales y centros de salud, y así determinar cómo las redes están construidas en las unidades clínicas y cómo influyen en la autopercepción de los trabajadores sobre el rendimiento grupal. Se aplicó el ARS para determinar la posición central y de liderazgo de los individuos en la redes. La muestra fue de 177 profesionales procedentes de organizaciones sanitarias públicas en España. Los médicos y las enfermeras tienden a diferir en cuanto al liderazgo y a la relevancia que otorgan a las redes. El liderazgo médico es mayor en la Red del Consejo, y el de las enfermeras en la Red de Ayuda y de Motivación. Las redes están positivamente relacionadas con el rendimiento. Este estudio empírico m...

Many risk factors for the development of AD have been investigated, including nutrition. Although it has been proven that nutrition plays a role in AD, the precise mechanisms through which nutrition exerts its influence remain undefined. The object of this study is to address this issue by elucidating some of the mechanisms through which nutrition interacts with AD. This work is a qualitative systematic bibliographic review of the current literature searchable on various available databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. Our evidence comprises 31 articles selected after a systematic search process. Patients suffering with AD present a characteristic microbiome that promotes changes in microglia generating a proinflammatory state. Many similarities exist between AD and prion diseases, both in terms of symptoms and in the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis. Changes in the comp...

For their achievement, as well as other tools, professionals have a large number of validated rating scales specifically designed in the assessment of the different areas or fields. Its use can be very useful, especially for the objectification of evaluation results. The future of research in this area goes through deepening the adequacy of the scales to the characteristics and needs of older people in each care level or place of care.

Is a key element in the quality of care processes, care processes among which noted, by its impact, the medication management and administration. All health professionals need, in developing their professional competence, strategies to improve safety in medication management and to incorporate the prevention of errors and adverse events in their training programs and assistance: only from proper planning will be approached for excellence in clinical care and safety.

Together with the transitional situation health systems are undergoing, this obliges nurses to search for new innovative methods to comply with their professional duties and for the creation of instruments that facilitate the increase in the quality treatment nurses provide, as well as the mechanisms through which excellence in educational preparation and professional compliance are recognized. In the following pages, the authors deal with this focus based on professional competencies as a tool which nears these objectives.

The aging process changes increase the probability that health problems occur. This fact involves that the needs of care demanded by the population increase too. The care for the elderly generally are provided in home environments, where often, the primary caregiver is another old person. In this sense, must be taken into account that this stage of life, the old age, although there has been important improvements in the quality of life and in the resolution of health problems, presents certain limitations refers to physical and mental declines that affect to the functional capacity of elderly caregivers. For this reason, it is necessary to carry out a comprehensive geriatric assessment to identify unresolved needs and establish care strategies required to attend their demands for care.

The VGI is developed by an interdisciplinary team, which plays a key role nursing. The framework nurse and nursing conceptual models, especially the 11 functional health patterns, enable the multidimensional assessment and subsequent intervention. The VGI covers four areas, clinic, mental, social and functional, although its axis, its importance and globalization concept is functional assessment. For this we have the history, physical examination and a series of specific instruments, geriatric assessment scales. They are a complement to, not only the VGI axis.

A total of 73.8% of the sample declared having used off-prescription drugs during the last month (2.84;2.26–3.58). A total of 28.9% said they did this because they are familiar with the health problem and its pharmacological solution and 25% deemed that it was a mild health problem. Drugs most commonly used off-prescription were analgesics in 88.91% (3.63;2.74–4.80) of occasions. They were mainly recommended by the students’ family (1.31;1.03–1.65) on 58.12% of the cases. Students keep analgesics they take off-prescription in their home first aid kit (4.47;3.28–6.08; p < 0.001). Unlike other studies, 53.2% obtained off-prescription drugs from the home first aid kit (1.13;0.89–1.43; p < 0.001). In addition, they gave advice and recommend drugs they have taken to other people with similar symptoms (1.97;...

It interferes with normal development of children. Its impact transcends childhood to appear in adolescence and adulthood. Diagnosis would be developed if the child shows the main symptoms of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity, with consequences in different aspects of daily life, such as academic achievements, family life or social interactions with other children. These symptoms will come up along life in different ways. When the child is young, hyperactivity and impulsivity prevail, but as he/she grows, the dispersion and difficulty to remember things and facts will become more evident. The aim of the study was to assess with the Vanderbilt scale, based on DSM-IV diagnostic criteria, the differences of the impact of ADHD among parents, in comparison to the medical diagnosis. A retrospective study was carried out by using this questionnaire, which comp...
